Fort Donelson Presents "The Keys to the Gateway"

Jul 19, 2025 - 1:30pm-2:30pm
Fort Donelson National Battlefield // Education Pavilion - Dover
931-232-5706

The Campaign for Forts Henry and Donelson involved navigating almost 70 miles of rivers and roads, as well as coordinating thousands of troops, a river fleet, and almost a dozen commanders. Fighting took place in multiple areas over a sizable portion of land and on the water. This complex campaign skyrocketed Brigadier General Ulysses S. Grant to fame and marked the beginning of the end for the Confederacy in the western theater.

This "Battlefield in a Box" program is an interactive visual program designed to allow visitors to participate in telling the story. Visitors attending the program can expect to better understand what took place and where it happened while having a memorable experience! The program is open to groups and people of all ages and is an excellent program for families.

Programs are subject to staffing availability. In the interest of safety, in the event of inclement weather, programs are subject to cancelation. Information as to program status will be available online, or by contacting the Ranger office at 931-232-0576.

Fort Donelson Presents "Battle for Maney's Battery"

Jul 19, 2025 - 10am-11am
Fort Donelson National Battlefield // 229 Sandy Rd, Battery Trail Parking Circle - Dover
931-232-5706

To defend Fort Donelson, Confederates used soldiers and enslaved people to construct trenches along several ridge lines close to the fort and the town of Dover. Along multiple high points they placed cannons to guard approaches along creek beds. Two of the overlooked but important batteries were Maney's and Graves'. Both guarded Indian Creek, and some of the hardest fighting of the campaign took place there on the afternoon of February 13, 1862.

Join a Ranger on the 3rd Saturday of the month to go on a .6-mile roundtrip hike. Explore the events of Brigadier General John A. McClernand's attack on Maney's Battery that became the most controversial Union attack at Fort Donelson. The attack failed and brush fires burned wounded and dead Union soldiers. Was this attack, as later reported by Ulysses S. Grant in his memoirs, carried out "without orders or authority," or, according to John McClernand, was it carried out "within the spirit of your order�"? Attend the program to learn about this overlooked part of the battle for Fort Donelson!

Please be aware that while the hike is short, the hill is very steep and uneven. Please wear sturdy closed-toed shoes and be prepared to go up several hundred feet in elevation.

Programs are subject to staffing availability. In the interest of safety, in the event of inclement weather, programs are subject to cancelation. Information as to program status will be available online, or by contacting the Ranger office at 931-232-0576.
